Abstract
Our study shows a high prevalence of a range of seizure precipitants in DS. Our results underscore elevated body temperature as an important seizure precipitant, whether caused by fever, warm bath, ambient warmth, or physical exercise. Knowledge of these seizure precipitants may improve preventive strategies in the otherwise difficult treatment of DS.
